In the thick of the holiday season, God gives the Yada Yadas an unforgettable celebration.
It’s that time of year, and the holidays are just around the corner. The Yada Yada Prayer Group is in a tizzy of excitement—kids home from college, turkeys to be roasted, gifts to buy, trees to decorate . . . not to mention getting decked out for a huge New Year’s Eve party to welcome back a few Yada Yada sisters who’ve been away too long.
But when Jodi Baxter is thrown into a series of events that include a frenzied wedding, a newborn baby, and some strange encounters with a former student, the holiday season suddenly becomes just a jumble of chaos.
As Jodi slows down long enough to look at each unexpected event from God’s point of view, she discovers what it means to be a part of God’s upside-down kingdom, decked out in compassion, kindness, and a huge willingness to let go of control. This will be a holiday that Jodi, her family, and her prayer-group sisters will never forget as they don their most festive outfits and raise the roof in a celebration of prayer and praise.
From Thanksgiving and Christmas to rolling in the New Year, the Yada Yadas are "decked out" to celebrate the holidays!
Turkey dinners, tree trimming, and decking the halls-it's that time of year again! And I, Jodi Baxter, can't wait to celebrate. My kids are coming home for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and then all of us Yadas are getting decked out for a big New Year's party.
But God's idea of "decked out" might just change the nature of our party plans. A perplexing encounter with a former student, a crime that literally knocks me off my feet, a hurry-up wedding, and a child who will forever change our family . . . it's times like these that I really need my prayer sisters.
This holiday season, we Yada Yadas are learning that no one can out-celebrate God. So let's get this party started!
